Cherry Pie Cookies

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix just until combined.
5. Flatten about 1 tbsp dough in your hand. Place about 1 tbsp cherry pie filling in the center, cover with another tablespoon of dough, seal the edges, and roll into a ball.
6. Arrange the cookies about 2 in (5 cm) apart on the prepared sheet and sprinkle with sugar.
7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are golden. Cool briefly on the sheet, then transfer to a wire rack.
